What did you do to get good at Rails?
Built an online store, i jumped in the deep end, but after two months part time on rails, i got a cool little app working. From there, i kept building apps, and helping out on #rubyonrails
Who taught you what you know?
the crew at #rubyonrails, mainly you.
Do you have any fond (or not so fond) memories of your learning experiences?
What did you do to get good at Rails?
I just kept at it and worked with it on a professional basis. Constantly learning about new things and working with people who do Rails is also a good start.
Who taught you what you know?
The internet, friends/coworkers and Dr Nic. That, and trial and error. I guess one of the benefits of Rails is many things are implicit and make sense, but sometimes it has quirks and the internet documents a lot of these quirks.

What did you do to get good at Rails? Initially started with the Agile Web Dev with Rails book, used that to build an all-AJAX Twitter app back when Twitter was shiney and new. Demo'd that to work and that rolled into a pilot project using Ruby/Rails to tie a couple of backend APIs together into a reporting app. I decided I loved it all so much that I began some client projects on the side.
Who taught you what you know? Mostly self-taught ... worked with other techs for many years, so most of the learning was in details of Ruby and the platform rather than "oh this is a model" level.
Do you have any fond (or not so fond) memories of your learning experiences? The first time I built AJAX using about 3 lines of code. Coming from PHP and Java this was all previously manual. These days everyone has been inspired by Rails, but it's very easy to forget that at the time it was so far aheadf of the curve it was like magic.
What was your first production app and what did you learn from it?
What did you do to get good at Rails? I came from a PHP background, so the path I took was to workout how to do everything I knew with PHP in Ruby and Rails, as well as reading loads of source code and ripping parts out and making smaller apps.
Who taught you what you know? Mainly Google, I didn't know anyone using Rails for the first year or more.

My first look at rails 3.0.pre and the steps to take to create and live with rails 3.0.pre that I came across.
Why was I looking at the secret Rails 3.0? Their generators are being migrated over to Thor and I wanted to see them in action. I might migrate newgem to use Thor too.
Here's a quick poke around of getting started and interesting things I found. Any hiccups and workarounds are meant as a guide to pre-pre-3.0 users/developers and not as a criticism of rails-core. Rails 3.0 is looking shiny and awesome.
As of today, you cannot install 3.0.pre from rubygems [1]. So, let's install them from source. Which is handy, you might like to patch something.
